VOLl; "E XXXXIV NOVEMBER,1927

EDITORIALS

\Vith the purchase of new Corona typewriters for every Province President and Province Vice President, Pi Beta Phi has taken another forward step in the scheme of Internal Development which she has been following so closely during the past few years. The expression, Internal Development, sounds more or less theoretical but it has come to Internal Development mean something very tangible. It is the basis upon w hie h depends the strengthening of our ideals; our national growth; our individual progress.

The Internal Development of Pi Beta Phi consists of the close supervision of each chapter and of individuals through annual visits and regular letters of the Province Presidents, and biennial visits of a Grand Council member; of well organized Executive Councils and Alumn", Advisory Boards; of competent, interested chaperons and loyal Mothers' Clubs; of a national accounting and budgeting system for each chapter; of chapter house building supervision; of annual vis its to clubs of Province Vice Presidents; of conlmittee work carried 011 m 0 s t efficiently; of instructions, s up p li es and lett ers sent from the Central Office; and of the interest of all national officers in individuals, clubs and chapters. Alsn, our interest in things altruistic is kept keenly alive through our big work at LitUe Pigeon.

Efficiency is the keynote of the entire Internal Development program. Those who work for the interests of Pi Beta Phi, do so because they are loyal to the wine and bille and because they love the work, not because of any monetary gain and thus their work is imbued with sincerity.

To the Grand President who devotes her entire time to Pi Beta Phi, Internal Development means interest in every wearer of the arrow; close contact and a thorough understanding of the work of every chapter, club, committee and officer. Her Imowl-

THE ARROW OF PI RnA PHI

edge of all things Panhellenic and her wide fraternity experience have given h er the necessary background for furthering every phase of our fraternity's internal development .

The Editor wi shes to acknowledg e with deep appreciation the sp lendid services of Lorena Accola Fitzell, Florence C lum Temple, and Dorothy Cleaveland who ha\'c served as faithfulmcmbers of the ARROW staff. Because of a conIn Appre ciation templated trip to Europe, Mrs. Fitzell felt it necessary to give up her wo rk a 5

Editor; and Mrs. Temple, on account of additional educational acItnlte s, recommended that the Mailing List be p laced with the Centra l Office.

\ Vhat is the first thing you do when you recci\ O c y c.. ur ARROW? Do you turn to the news of your own chapter and a lumna:!? Yes. Are you disappointed? If yo u are an alumna of Michigan B, and should read the alumna! personals in this issue , you will feel as if you had been back in Ann Arbor having a real visit at the alumn", club meeting. Mrs . Alfred H. Alumnae News White (Rebecca Downey, Colorado Ban d Michigan B), who submitted the notes for Michigan B, realized how eager each alumna would be for news of her friends and it is evident she tried to make the items a s complete as possib le. Other alumn", secretar ies were equa ll y painstaking, but the Editor cites Michigan B as a good example to follow.

The Alumn", Personals department should be of inlerest to each and .."ery reader of T"J; ARROW, not just to your own club o r group. Read the itenlS und er HArroweltes" which were a I I g leaned from the alumn", persona l s; and see if they do not interest you.

Surely you know something of interest about at least one other Pi Phi. Please send items of interest, accu rate new addres ses, and any alumn", data to the Alumn", Editor before Jan-

nary S, if possible. Always remember to indicate the name of the chapter to which the pPrson belongs so that the item may be correctly placed. Start in today and appoint yourself a special reporter e ith er to send in news direct or to turn it in to the club secretary.

\\'e consider the following editorial from The Rainbow of Delta Tau Delta as being exceptionally fine:

Gentlem e n, the Fraternity is Lv thl'un tht:.' uld hal Into the ring.

About liqu or, it is.

Not nbout drinking in the chapter bouses. \Ve are flatfooted ('Hough about thnt Inquire it you nre uninformed. But about the alumnus who gets tllese boys out and drinks with About Liquor them- most of nil about the man, alumnus or actiYe, who feels that he Cllnnot attend n dinaer o r n conference or a Kllrtlon (Co nv en tion) without s lipping a coup le of pinta or quarts into his bip pucket o r into the suitcase.

This Is the 80rt ot thing lhat canllot be bandied delicately. You mmlt either fnee the Situation square ly , or you must let It alone And to tnce it squarply is- har(t. To talk out hurts But. gentlemen ot the alumni, the- Fraternity Is obliged to be much more vitally concerned about these boys and Its own corporate moraLIty thou It is about any one ot us, or any dozen ot us. We must be the first to admit thnt.

And here Is another Karn ea (Convention) coming.

Twice within the last months younger members of tbe Fraternity, when charged with having violated our anti·lIquor l aw, have made the statement. which ca n hardly be caUf>d an excuse, that their first Intro· duction to the Fraternity-at-large was at a gathering where drinking seemed not to be discountenanced and men high in the councils of the Frnternity were setting tbe pace-that tbey had unconsciously come to associate drinking with a l;:ood frat e rnity CQlebratlon.

What right hove we to discIpline 8uy yo un ger member tor taking his cue trom a IDan to whom we ba \'e entrusted the welfare ot the Fraternity and upon wbom we have heaped Fraternity honors? This Is not a personal asp 2rsion. There have been enough eases of t.his kind tn recent years to relie\'e the statement ot any particular identlfi· cation. To attempt to dlsJ:UJse the tact w o uld be hypocrisy and. 41 8· honesty.

As member s of a nati o nal Panhellenic organization we should be leader s in the wo rld o f education. Many o f u s are pointed t o in our co mmunities as being "educated" women. But are we ? Are we careful of the use of o ur English in talking and in writing? For in s tan c e ther e seem s to be confus ion in the min d s of some as to the correct pronunciation of Are You Educated? words such as status, datum, alwnnre, research, obligatory, etc. Consult a good dictionary concerning these. Status sho uld be pronounced with the accent on the first sy ll able with a long a; datum, the same; alumni is pronounced with the accent on the last syllable and the i long; alumn ", is pronounced as if the las t syllable were long e ; accent in research is on the la st syUa ble; accent the first sy llable of obligatory. In editing the r eports of chapter delegates it was interest ing to note that a number o f words s eem to give trouble in spelling, such as: unaffiliated, personnel, chaperon, a11round, pageants, parliamentary, occasion, maintenan ce, freshman ( when used as an adjective), sophomore , preceding, privileges . Attention to the correct use o f English is m ost essential if you would consider yourself "educated."

Star path

Threading the night t o me:

Spanning the in fi niti es of heavenly spaces; Skimming the barriers of winter ranges; Shimmering into penciled love lin ess

Across the water;

Slipping between the s h ado wy pines

That guard the shore line; And reaching out in fri endliness to me, Fire-framed, in my cabin doorway.

The moon rises ,

Shouldering its way abo ve the mountain , Showering its flood of crysta l mist about me,

Touching with a magic of silvered beauty

The heart of the mystic night!

But why must it pale the fir elight of cabin doorways?

Why must it dim the star path ?

And catch with its frozen radiance

That fragile thread of b eauty, Etched through the night to me?

MESSAGE FROM GRA N D PRESIDENT

IXTY years as a national college fraternity! We, who today share in the privilege of as s oc iation in Pi Beta Phi, think with loving gratitude of the twelve girls who first had the vision of a national college fraternity for women and of the many who, in the years between, have given of their best to develop that vision into an international fraternity of un s urpa ss ed ac hievement s. The service which Pi Beta Phi has given and is giving to its members in bringing to their college association s an idealism and a realization of the necessity for maintaining high standards is complete justification for its existence: to this, however, it has added an unselfish thought for others manifested in the Settlement School, which was presented to the fraternity, on its fiftieth anni\'enary, as a memorial to its Founders and to the spirit of service for others which their lives have exemplified. Along with its ideal of altruism, Pi Beta Phi has he ld another, equally precious-that of true friendship! On its sixtieth anniversary, it is offering as a memorial to the unutterably <lear friendships which it has f a s t ere d throughout the years an endowment to insure the continuation of the high sen'ice to its members which has been consistently given and wh ich has been SO fruitful of that best of all possessions after character-friends. Our gi fts will necessarily inadequately express the value even of one friend, but as they come from loving and gratefu l hearts they will honor both the friends and Pi Beta Phi.

PI BETA PHI ENDOWMENT CAMPAIGN

1±l.JN honor of the Sixtieth .\ nni\"ersary of its founding, ",Pi Beta Phi, at the Con venti ) n at Breezy Point Lodge in , June, 1927, launched an Endowment Dri\"e Campaign.

\Vithin the past few years college fraternities have realized th e nece ss ity for safeguarding the future ann caring for the present through endowment funds.

Pi neta Phi with its ARROW Endowment was one of the first women's fraternities to make such a for the future and now has the largest maga zi ne endowment of any women's fraternity

The Endowment Dri,'e ,'oted at Convention swings Pi Beta Phi into l ine with the other national organizations fostering similar 1110\'ements. Con\'ention autho ri zed a brief, intensive campa ign for a $SO,OOO endowment, the principal of which sha ll b e availahle for chapter house loans and the interest , for internal organizat ion needs. It is to be a Friend s hip Fund. which means that every Pi Beta Phi will want to hayc a part in it.

The Grand Council has very real pleasure in announcing the appointlnent of the Kansas City. :\iissouri, Cl ub as directors of the campa ign. 1'he enth u siastic l oyalty with which this sp lendid club has accepted the opportun it y for a great ser, ice to Pi Beta Phi is another guarantee of the success of th " Friendship Fund.

N the shores of Big Pelican Lake, shining water of the North land, in a country of lu x uri ant fore sts and gorgeous wild flower s , in a land of balmy evenings and long twilight , 1110re than five hundred and fi fty Pi Beta Ph is worked and played together at the Twenty-Ei g hth Biennial Conventi o n he ld at Breezy Point Lodge, Pequot, Minn ., fr o m June 26 to July I , 1927.

There in the heart of Minnesota 's land of Ten Thou sand Lakes, one hundred and fi fty miles from the I"rwin Citie s , where the wood s and waters are rich in the lo re of the Chippew as and the Sioux, with the romance of the frontier days sti ll haunting the regum, Pi Phis from every ' sect ion of the co untry enjoyed to the utmos t the s tay at Breezy Point Lodge, which is without ques· tion the finest , mo s t complete, most luxuri ous s umm er resort in the entire north lake country. There were not hours enough between sess ions to enjoy the

wonderful walk s through the woods; the canoeing or motor boating on the lake; the swimming or lo unging along the beach; the can terin g on the s had ed bridle paths; or the games of golf on the well kept course.

Gay-colored umbrella s scattered along the beach near the splendid equipment for water spo rts, added a tou c h of the Riviera or Deauville; the tenn is courts with their surroundings hinted 'of Forest .Hi1Is; and the trapshooting demon s tration gave a glimpse of the Olympics.

In the short space of f.i \" e months, Sybil Bat e s Guttersen, Minnesota A, Convention Guide, and her committee worked 0 u t every plan and detail for taking care of this, the second largest Biennial Convention in the hi st ory of the fraternity , thi s gathering being exceeded in size only by the Convention at Estes Park.

Not only did Mrs. Guttersen W 0 r k out her own system of registration, rOvm placings, baggage handling, and dozens of other important phases of her work, but she personally supervised arrangements. Hours of conference we r e spent with Mrs. Fawcett, trips were made to Breezy Point, and everything was in readiness when the delegates arrived.

She a Iso made special provisions for th e pre-Convention SYBIL BATES GUTTERSEN meeting of the G ran d Council who, because of another convention at Br.eezy Point at that time, were housed in McIntyre Cottage tucked away on a secluded bay of Big Pelican on the Breezy Point property. Mrs. Fawcett's personal maid took most excellent care of these advance guests . The weeks and mon ths preceding Convention were busy ones

for the Guide but the ac tual hours of Convention were filled to over flowin g with demands upon her tim e. however. m e t every emergency with marked efficiency despite the fact t hat some reservations made were not cance lled until the las t moment, and· some persons arrived without making any reservations. Not only did the Guide supervise the placing of th e delegates an d the giving out of the clever pine tree and o th e r necessary tag s, but she gave much of her time and energy to seeing that individuals were happ y and contented. If so m eone wanted t o find "co wgirls" among the wester n delegates to ride with lone rid ers who were anxi ou s to try the high-spirited mounts o( the Breezy Point s tables , she turned to ?-I rs. Gutt ersen: if a doctor was needed to ass ist a sprained ankle, a call was sent for th e G uid e, it was she wh o c hart ered taxis for cross-cou ntry transportation; s he it was who s moothed out small di ffi c ulti es; in (act, through the hum and buzz in th e big lObby o f th e Lodge, there see med t o be an ever recurrin g : "Call for Mrs. G utt e r sen!" And she wo uld be right there on th e spo t in the s hortest time possible.

To her and to her comm ittee , to the e ntir e hostess province , to Mr. M. M. Goodsi ll , and to Mr. and Mrs. Fawcett, Pi Beta Phi owes a debt of g ratitude for th e happy days s pent at Breezy Point!

From east and west, from north and south, automobile parties sped towards Breezy Point, arriving in time to greet the Special. Nell ""eaver, president of Oklahoma A, and two friends made the journey from Norman in Ring, Ching, Ching without mishap. Katherine Chappell, Mary Higinbotham, Mary Boon and Nancy Carney of Kansas B, made up another jolly motor party.

After the arrival of the Special Train, the Minneapolis and St Paul alumn ", took the entire delegati o n f or a n automobile tO\lr of th e Twin Cities, with more than 200 Pi Phis a nd assistants in charge o f the trip EY<ry guest o n the trip received a lovely souvenir containing pic-tures a nd descriptions of interesting places and buildings in the Twin Cities.

Other delegates bound for Breezy Point, were . royally en' tertained at luncheon at Marshall Field's tea roo m by Ch icago and s uburban alumn:e clubs; later those who wi s hed were taken to a suite of rooms at the Palmer House where they could rest .

The day in Chicago closed with a dinner at the Piccadilly just before the Specia l Train departed.

Alumn", of Salt Lake City, of Du luth and Superior, offe red hospitality to Pi Phis passing through their cities, as did other al umn re in various parts of the country.

Grace Hancher Beck, former Iota Province President, chaperoned a specia l car of delegates and v i sitors from the Northwest, as she has done for se\'era l previous Conventions.

As the Special Trai n sped northward, many friendships were renewed and new ones made . One thrill after another, such as the Pi Phi mentis on the Northern Pacific diner, and 0 the r "things Pi Phi" kept the travel ers ente rtained, but the big,est surprise came wh en the train reached the li tt le city o[ Brainerd, Minn.

'fhe section from the "Vest was met by Brainerd fraternity women led by Mrs. Allbright, secretary of the Brainerd Chamber of Commerce, delegations of wOInen's clubs, and cit ize n s generally. The Brainerd Ladies' Band, a splendid organ ization cleverly uni formed, generously entertained the visitors. Greetings were extended to Mrs. F . C. Sig ler, Nationa l Historian, by City Attorney D H. Fullerton, acting for the mayo r

The second section of the Specia l with Nina Harris Allen in cha r ge, was met by the same delegations and Mayor Frank E. Lit tl e, who delivered an address of welcome in which he invited all Pi Beta Phis to consider Brainerd entirely at their disposal whenever they might be there during the Convention . Flags, both American and Canadian, decorated Front street of the little city in hon o r o f the Pi Phis from the United States and the members from the Unive r sity of Toronto.

Coming as a complete surprise, the entertainment by the citizens of Brainerd and their hospitality were doubly appreciated . Much credit for this enthusiasm in Brainerd is due Mr. John A. Hoffbauer of the Brainerd Dispatch who did the best publicity work on the entire Convention of any newspape r reporter who has Hcovered" Pi Beta Phi Conventions. Mr. 'Hoffbauer's accounts of the sessions were accurate and clearly written and hi s news items pertaining to important events of Convention were printed

Automobi les provided by Mrs. Fawcett met the Special T r a ina t Pequot and whisked the delegates 0 v e r the five miles of wonderful roads bordered by t hie k woods to the eagerly anticipated destination -B r e e z y Point Lodge.

Pine boughs a lso added to the deco rati ons, and the very pretty prog r ams whi ch had been placed on the chairs add ed a d ash of wine and blue t o the effect .

Th e Tw enty-e ight h Biennial Convent ion of Pi Beta Phi was opened at Convention Ha ll at eight o'clock on Ju ne 26, by Amy Burnham O nk e n , G rand President. Fo und er, Fanny \ Vhitenack Libbey, o f Seattle , Was h., gave the In vocat ion. Other Founders present were: Clara B r own lee Hutchinson of Monmouth, Ill. , .nd Inez Smith Soule of Tacoma, Wash.

Just to be near the Founders, to h ear th em t e ll of their

early fraternity experiences, or to catch the light of enthusiasm in their eyes was a great inspiration.

Greatregret was expressed when it was learned that Francese E van s Ives, Grand Set:retary, would not be able to b e present a t the Con"ention. Her personal charm , humor, and her c Lear thinking were outstanding at the Bigwin Lnn Convention and during her yeal-s of service, and her retirement from the r.ranrl Co un cil was keenly felt.

Why the Orand SecretarY did n o t come to Convention

Olive Keller Laurence, l\1innesota A, former Grand Vic e President, w as unanimou s ly elected Secretary for Convention in the absence of Mrs. Ives, and loyally gave her assistance.

The Convention personnel was established by the taking of credentia ls and the introduction of Emilie Margaret White, Grand Vice President; Lois Franklin Stoolman, Grand Treasurer, Agnes Wright Spring, ARROW Editor; Lorena Accola Fitzell, Alullln", Editor; Sarah E ikenberry Sigler, National Historian; Mable Scott Brown, Cataloguer; Marie Freeman Palmer, National Supervisor of Chapter Accounting; Nina Harris Allen, 'rransportalion Manager; members of the Settlement School Committee, induding Nita Hill Stark, Chairman; Evelyn Bishop, Head Resident; Gertrude Freeman, Agnes Turner and Ethel Curryer. Other introductions were Ruth Barrett Smith, chaimlan of the Extension Committee; E I len Clare - Gillespie Kribs, chairman of the Examination Committee; Province Presidents, Province Vice Presidents, the assistant to the Grand Vice President, Kate Freund Miller, and also the Convention Initiate, Mrs. O. E. Good-

THE ARROW of PI BETA PHI

ell The Convention Guide and her Committee we r e also announced by the Grand President Mrs. W. H. Fawcett, hostess, then very cordially welcomed Pi Beta Phi to Breezy P oi nt Lodge.

Greetings and words of regret were then read from Margaret E. Campbell and Libby Brook Gaddis, Founders, who were unable to attend Convention; from Grace Goodhue Coolidge, Vermont A; from former Grand Vice President, Anna Robinson Nickerson; fr om former ARROW Editor, Sarah Pomeroy Rugg, from May L.

A greeting was also read from R ose Nowell, Florida A, in which she invited the fraternity to hold it s next Convention at Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Va. A telegram from the Honorable John Martin, Governor of Florida, suggested Jack sonv ille, the Gateway of Florida, as an ideal city for the next Convention; invitations to come to Jacksonville were also received from the Jacksonville Alumnre club, Florida B, the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce, and from John C. Alsopp, Mayor of that city. Other greetings were read from the Long Beach Alumnre club, fr o m the Pasadena Alum",,, club, from California B, from Kappa Kappa Gamma, from Alpha Omicron Pi, from L. G. Balfour, from the Los Angeles cluh, and fr om the Mayor of Miami, Florida, inviting Pi Beta Phi to come t o Miami.

CONVBNTION INITIATE

Next came the attendance contest in which amid much handclapping, Amy B. Onken won first place, this being h e r seve nth Convention .

In the scho lar. hip contest, Michigan A held the fl oo r fo r first honors, havin g r eta in ed fir s t place o n he r campus for thirteen consecutive semesters.

At the beginning of th e so ng serv ice, Marie Winsor Stebbin s , Michigan H, Beta' Province President, was introd uced as th e au tho r of the "A nthem," and received much app1ause.

Delta Province presented the "Consecration Song," th e words o f which were arran ged by Marian Jones of Tennessee A, and set t o music by th e noted pipe o rgan is t , Palmer C hri st ia n , husband o f Lois Chri s ti an, De lta Province President. Florence Chapman Paetzold, Neb ra ska E , as.isted in lea ding the s ing ing o f a num ber of fraternity songs, some of whi ch had heen submitted in the Song Contest.

The Com'cmio" Daily Editor-in-Chief, Katherine Robinson, Colorado n, arrived at Point, Sunday afternoon on the Special Train, and in her calm, inconsp icuou s manner set the machinery of the Daily to moving. Through pre, ious planning sh e had assembled copy for the fi rst issue which wa s placed in the hand s of the printer late in the afternoon.

The next morning before breakfast, :l1r. Ben Wagner, of the Pequot RC'lric'lv, of Pequot, delivered the first issue printed and rea dy for distribution. Every aftern oo n Mr. " Tagner o r his son called at Breezy Point for the copy, drove forty - five mil es to Hacken sack to the print shop and returned with the is su es before breakfast the next morning. Perfect cooperation was given the Daily staff by Mr. Wagner and Pi Beta Phi greatly appreciates his exce ll ent work.

Advertisements were solicited and the business end of the Daily attended to by Elizabeth Dixon and her assistants.

The alcove of the main Lodge which was se t aside for the Co"venlion Daily staff hummed with the click of typewriters, copy was in on time, ;tssignments covered with regularity, and the work of the Daily ran with remarkable smoothness under the quiet, efficient direction of Katherine Robinson.

To work on the Daily meant giving up many of the pleasures of the Convention and spend ing long hours at the typewriters or in addressing wrappers and in performing numerous necessary duties. Each individual member of the staff contributed h er share towards making the paper a success and through it enabled those who could not come to Breezy Point to enjoy news of the "daily doings,"

A SUMMARY OF SESSIONS

Since a complete, detailed account of the regular active and alumnre business sessions was printed in the September ARRow, this will not be repeated. The chief aim of the Chronicle is to give a glimpse of the Convention outside of "business hours."

In passing, however, for the sake of ready reference it is interesting to note that among the many things accomplished in the sessions are the following:

L egislative High -Lights

The laun c hing or n brier, intensive cftlll J'm ign for a $50,000 Contingent J<: ndowm ent l!'uod.

Provision for a visit to each niumm-e club from its Province \"ice President once during each interim of CO D\'e ntlollS.

Permanent llfO\'lslon f or the PI Beta Phi Central OfOce as a non· executh"c office (or the <carrying on of the clerical work of the fraternity. for the publishing and issuing of supplies, and for the supervWon ot all catalogue and mailing lists.

Under the able direction of the Grand President and the Grand Vice President the sessions moved forward with remarkable smoothness . iloth presiding officers displayed exceptional executive ability, clear thinking and leadership and were true inspirations to the delegates with their knowledge of parliamentary law and thrir comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the organization and problems of Pi Beta Phi.

The Grand Treasurer, when not in sessions, was a most popular person with her command of the purse strings; and it fell to the lot of the ARROW Editor to wield the blue pencil On all Convention publicity.

Model Pledgillg allli [IIili<l,ioll

On Monday evening after dinner, the model pledging was he ld in the large dining room of the main Lodge, at wh ich time Bertha IVI. Goodell was pledged to Pi Beta Phi, with the ARROW Editor acting as her sponsor .

Later the Model Initiation took place in Convention Hall with the Grand Council, the Province Officers, and Mary Elizabeth Axby of Indiana A, ass isting in the ceremony.

After the Initiat ion, members of Indiana A, t h e chapte r in to which Mrs. Goodell was initiated, introduced her to those who had not already had the pleasure of meeting her. The diamond jeweled arrow worn by the Convention In i t iate was a gift of Indiana A.

BERTHA M. GOODELL

For the first time in several years, we were privileged to ha ve our Conventi on Initiate with us during the entire time of Convention.

Bertha Margaret Goodell was selected by the Grand Council f o r initiation at Convention because of her i n t ere s t in the young women of today; because of her keen intellect and womanliness; because of her lovely personality; because of her accomplishments w h i I e acting Dean of Women of Franklin College; and because 0 f the high respect in which she wa& held in Franklin by the members of Indiana A, by all national officers who met her, and by everyone in the community.

As Bertha Margaret Smith, she attended Shepardson Academy a t Granville, Ohio, and later received the degree of A.B. from Denison University. She also hold s an M.A. degree from the Un iversity of Chicago where she majored in Education. Following her years in college she taught and for thirteen years was head of the English department and s upervi sor of girls at Oak Park high school, Oak Park, III.

After graduating from Franklin College, he took g r a d u ate work at Cornell and the U niversity of Chicago, returning to Franklin to accept the presidency. There he remained for nine years until he purchased the American College Bureau in Chicago of which he is now president. This i. the largest placement bureau for teachers in the United States.

Colgate University conferred the degree of LL.D. (honorary) upon Mr. Goodell and he is a member of Phi Delta Theta fraternity.

1.1 rs. Goorlell has served as vice-president of the Lake Shore dh'ision of teachers of Chicago, memher of the general committee of the University of Chicago on cooperation with the secretary of schools, and as a member of the committee of English of the University of Illinois Her work with the thousand to twelve hundred girls in Oak Park high school served as a preliminary preparation for her work as acting dean of women at Franklin College where she al;o taught Engli h. She is now associated with her husband in their American College Bureau and has charge of the placement of English and music teachers in high schools and colleges and of teachers in college departments of education.

Tuesday's Program

The morning session on Tuesday was that of the Active Delegates; in the afternoon the alumna! had charge and at that session it wa s announced by a Los Angeles representative that Miss La Verne, who has the lead in "Sun Up," had offered to adopt one boy from the Settlement School and to see that one other is adopted. She also expressed the intention of sending this boy through college if he proved worthy

At dinner that evening, as each one entered the dining room she received a lovely set of silver cuff pins and a bar pin bearing the crest of Pi Beta Phi. These were the gifts of L. G. Balfour, our sole official jeweler, and will be constant reminders of Mr. Balfour's generosity and of our happy days at Breezy Point.

Presenlaliot! of Prise Stunt

While the dining room was being cleared and made ready for the Settlement School program, a preliminary meeting was held in Convention Hall when New York A presented the prize stunt of Conv ention entitled, "The Highwayman." New York A, assisted by New York d, Minnesota A, Ontario A, and Iowa r presented the stunt with an unusual amount of success.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

Few characters, fewer actions, and no word s at all, except fo!" the Reader, probably contributed to the success of this pant0111ime. The reader, engulfed with tears, gave to th e audience the tragi c story of a beautiiul black-eyed daughter and her handsome highwayman s uitor, who, betrayed by a jealous lover, ended their tragic live s with s hotgun s and died nobly for their love. They later appeared before the audience despite the fatal wounds.

Following- this stu nt, Gail DeWolf, Zeta Province President, gave a very clever talk on Scholarship, assuring her audience that "The Road to Success I s Well Graded."

Inez Webster, Illinoi s A, who had recently returned from the Near East, told of her intere st ing work at the orphanages where she had charge of 6,0C>0 orphans in Armenia, and also told of her work in Syria. The audience sat spe llbound while she related incident s of the terrible earthquake and of the bravery of the small motherless children. It was a delight to have Miss Webster at Convention.

Settlement School Program

At nine o'clock, the Settlement School program began in the Lodge dining room with Nita Hill Stark, Chairman of the S.S. Committee, in charge. Thi s was the culmination of five years of very excellent work by Mrs. Stark whose foresight, se n se of humor, remarkable executive ability and interest have

contributed largely to the School's progress during that time. So much of her time and o f hersel f as chairman has she given to the work on Little Pigeon lnat she has endeared herself to the School staff and to all of the mountain people, and whenever her name is mentioned before chapters or alumna! clubs it is at once associated with our big altruistic work. Her husband, Lutcher Stark, Jr., has also aided he r in thi s work in many ways and has he en of much assistance to the School. Pi Beta Phi is most fortunate in retaining Nita Stark as a Province Vice President, now that her term of office on the Settlement School Committee has expired, as her ent hu sias m and loyalty are needed in national work.

During the Settlement School program, mimeographed copies of mountain ballads were distributed through the audience and everyone was invited to assist in si nging these quaint verses to the accompaniment of a guitar and piano. Miss Evelyn Bishop, Head Resident of the Schoo l, whose splendid work has brought the mountain people and the School so close together, sang one of the ballads of the m o untain folk and followed it with the encore, "The Lord of the Northern Sea." This ballad included one murd er, one hanging and one burning at the stake, but was very m u ch enjoyed by the audience.

Mr s . Stark then presented seven other members who were on ; he Committee or who had served as COlllmittee member s, including Mrs . Richardson, Melinda Stuart, Frances Curtis, L 0 i s Stoolman. Agnes Turner, Gertrude Freeman and Ethel Curryer. A sty le show in charge of the Treasurer of the Settlement School gave the audience an opportunity to see how beautifully the splendid weaving done on the 100l11s at Little Pigeon, can be made into dresses. A lovely sport model of green, a white wool outfit, an attractive wool knitted dress in Harding blue, and other designs worn by Pi Phi models added zest to the evening.

Mrs. Stark told of the new industrial buil ding being erected at the School and suggested that we acquire the habit of the School a greeting card with check at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

With her usual witty remarks, she exp lained the various scenes at Gatlinburg which were portrayed by three reel s of mo,·-

THE ARROW OF PI BeTA PHI

ing pictures taken by Mr. Stark and enlarged for club work. The corner stone of the new teacher's cottage at the Sugarlands, a general panorama of the valley, the Blue Ridge Mountains, Miss Chew and her schoo l board, the school buildings at Gatlinburg, nat ional visitors, members of the school staff-all became realities as they moved before the eyes of the spectators.

Attention was called to the very splendid A rrowcraft s h op d isplay on the second floor of the Lodge where baskets, woolens, furniture, and other love ly bits of handicraft had been artistically arranged and s u pervised by Lois Rogers and Miss Evelyn. A sand model of the Settlement School in this exhibit was also noteworthy.

At the conclusion of the program, Mrs. Stark extended an invitation to Pi Beta Phi to hold the next Convention at Gatlinburg, assuring everyone that ample accommodations would be provided for their comfort.

"The History of the Sett lement School," written by Pearl Cashell Jacksoll at the request of M r s. Stark was then placed on sale at SOc a copy, and within its blue and wine covers offe red to all fraternity members a so urce of very valuable information on this our g rea t altruistic work. This publication was s ignificant of the thoroughness with which Mrs. Stark conducted her work on the Settlement School Committee.

One of the features of the Settlement Schoo l meet ing was the reading of a letter from Anne Stuart, former Grand Treasurer . This letter was sent in response to a telegram sen t from Convention which stated about twenty times: HWe want, Anne!"

Your wants are many. Ycur words are few, But this is my problem, "What on earth can I clo?

Info rmal Spreads-Dinllers-Beacl> Parlies

Many informal gatherings took place between a nd after sess ions with spreads, beach parties and parades predominating. Immedi ately following the opening session of Convention , Eta Province delegates and visitors met for a sp read in the big Breezy Point Lodge dining room . Each delegate told something o f interest about her chapter, and the visiting actives and alumn", introduced them selves. Florence Chapman Paetzold, Nebraska B, graciously responded to a unanimou s request for a song; and Colorado A sang two numbers composed and u se d by the chapter.

Monday night Indi an a A entertained the Founders and Grand Council at dinner, honoring Mrs. Goodell, the Convention Initiate. Artistic place cards and favors added to the pleasure while much merriment resulted from the fortune telling by a hot e I guest.

Wednesday night both Gamma and Iota Pro\'inces en tertained the Grand Council and honor guests at parties. Iota's party for which attractive in\·itations were issued, was held in the large billiard room of t he lodge and consisted of many cle"er s to rie s, among them being Anne Stuart's wren, worm and "African canary" tales related by l\felinda: and "Is the bean dizzy?" by Dean Anna Blitz, Crace Hancher Beck, former Iota Province President, presided.

Q N THE BEACH AT BREEZY POINT

A spec ial feature during the dinner h o ur one evening was the distrihution of a little paper by Oklahoma A, and the s inging 0 f the "Love Call" f rom "Rose Marie" by Martha Melli rney of Oklahoma A Martha was voted the Indian Princess from the University of Oklahoma and wore for the s inging o f thi s son g a very beautiful Indian dress valued at $1,000 .

In the late hours of Tuesday night it is understood that the inspiration for a parade started in the room of Melinda Stuart, . Nebra ska B, who was staging a party f or the benefit of numerous "old timers ." According to a Daily contributor:

"Did you know that they ba'f'e parades even out In this wilderness? And circuses too-but they' re private because you can't crawl under cabins 8S yOU' can tents.

"But the parades- they nre grand-the best people, my dear! The pecuHar part of these parades, bowel-cr, Is that they come to see you Inste ad of you going to see them .

"Take the one Tuesday night, for exampl e. A magnHlcent drum co rps for one, aided by lovely combs. heralded th e approach of an nmnzLng assemblage of personages . This galaxy of stars featured eve rything from lisping, long·baired children to gum-drop chewLng noncbalnnt hLkt:rs and other slgnLH cant c haracters.

Among those who thoroughly enjoyed Convention wer e the mothers ana daughters. The reg istration at Breezy Point s howed Mrs. Rogers of Iowa A and an I.C .. with her daughter, Betty, I owa A , delegate; Mrs. R. B.

This is a unique situation. Mary \ Vhitaker is president; 1\1argaret Morton, correspond in g secretary; Parker, Convention delegate; :Margaret Tasher, ru s h captain; and \Villa Wolcott, ce n sor. Five of these daughters attended Convention. Here's to O llT Loyal Legacies!

Three lVC'W Chapters Chartered

\V ed n esday wa s o ut stand in g on the COI1Ycntion Program as the day of Exte n s ion, Recreation and Stunt Nig ht -t hr ee high lights.

On the balcony just above the main office in the Lodge there had been placed the pet iti ons from the three groups seeking charters at Convention. Very artistically were these arranged and they did much towards convincing the delegates of the worthiness of each chapter.

SOllvenirs bearing a pkture of the campus at South Dakota and the poem, "Out Where the 'Vest Begins," and tin y coyote tags fronl So uth Dakota; and tags instructing one to "Let your Arrow point to Birmingham ," etc .. called particular attention to the cause of the petitioners. Visitors constantly crowded aro und the tables, seeking information and studying the material. That they we re sati sfied with what they found was shown in the regular session '>V ednesday morning.

That Extension Session, tense with interest, is probably the only one in the history of Pi Phi at whi ch no opposition t o peti-

tioning chapters or to extension in general appeared from the Roor of Convention, des pite the fact that ample opportunity was g iven by Miss Onken for such discussion.

According to a chart presented by Agnes Wright Spring in connection with her presentation of the general expansion policy of Pi Deta Phi. since 1922 Pi Beta Phi has increased o nly 9 per cent, while Delta Delta Delt a was next in the conse rvative ranks with 12 per cent and Delta Zeta topped the list with 92 per cent.

A plea for expansion in the South was made by Tennessee A. Bernadine Chesley Sawers, Wisconsin A, presented the petition from Zeta Chi Delta of the University of South Dakota, with endorsements being g i ven by Ag-nes \\'right Spring, Nina Harris Allen , Olive Keller Laurence, Nehraska B.

The petition of Alpha Tau Zeta of the Univers ity of California at Los Angeles was presented by Ruth Darrett Smith, chairman of the Extension Committee. with endorsements from Miss Onken, California A. Mrs. Stoolman, Mrs. Stark, California r , Cali fornia B, Emilie Margaret Whit e, Leona Baumgartner, and Grace Post.

Alice \ Yard De Long, Ohio ll. a resident of Birmingham, made the formal presentation for Theta Pi of Birmingham-Southern. Delta Province President. Lois Christian, 1\1iss Onken, Tennessee A, Kentucky A, Olive Keller Laurence and Columbia A also spoke in its behalf.

One of the finest talks of the session was made by Fannie Whitenack Libhey, Founder, who asked that Convention consider very serious ly a ll three petit i ons.

A ru sh for the telegraph office followed the announcement that all three petitioning groups had been granted charte r s.

Splelldid Exhibits ShowlI

Many in struc tive hour s co uld have been spen t inspecting the very excellent exh ibits which the various chapter delegates had on display in the large billiard room and in the back room of the athletic hall. As much time as possible wa s given to these exhibit s by those who wi.hed to carry back ideas to their clubs and chapters.

'fhe ded sion of the Comm ittee consisting of Ai leen Sullivan Miller , Agne s Miller Turner, Fay Eccles, Valerie Wickham, and Lucile Hartman , was gi\'en to Arizona A, U niver sity of Arizona, for the best Co nve ntion exhibit . Thi s exhibit, prepared in the s hape of a hu ge cactu s, s howed wee k s of w o rk. Neatness and artistic arrangement were paramount, and as an accurate record of chapter history thi s exhibit ca nn o t be excelled . The large "cactu s book" was placed on a table decorat ed with s and, a tiny tent, etc., representing a dese rt sce ne.

A panorama of exhibits showed blanket s, cups, arrows in various forms, exhibits in the form of a Razorback, a cowboy, o r o th er things significant of the various alma maters. There was New York Delta's di splay o f heads which was clever. Ind :a na Alpha's exhibit, as usual, showed excellent balance ; Michigan Beta's h Oll se ar.d J daho A lpha's cupboa rd were unique; B o ulder's ho u se was a model o f good workmanship, as was Ca1if o rni a's Quad. Nebraska Beta's leather book, and Pennsylvania Delta' s crest, California Beta 's displ ay-all deserve especial mention, as do all of the other di splay s , but lack o f space permi ts further enumeration .

The bowling alley rang with the crash of falling pins; and loungers stretched in the warm sand und er the gay umbrellas to w<ltch the archery contest or water sports.

Late in the afternoon Captain "Billy" Fawceu ga\'t! an exhibition of trap shooting for the entertainment 0 f the Pi Phis. As captain and manager 0 f the Olympic Trapshoo ting team from the United States at Paris in 1924, he led his men to the World 's Championship.

Two exhibitions from the single traps were given and one, f rom the double. Roger Fawcett, the Captain's f o urteen-yea r old son, made a perfect score for the exhibition from the single trap, and Alex Fisher , Mrs .

Captain "Billy" displayed wonderf ul marksmanship and whenever a shot was missed had a perfect alibi.

This exh ibition of trapshooting by a world's champion and other experts was a real treat. -

We supposed that on account of the heat, if nothing else, almost all other sports would surrender their champs to the water, on the contrary, however, those in charge of swimming were a little disappointed in the number of entrants. Iowa Z easily won the meet, represented by Perde Ellen Van A l stine who wun first in speed and form, as well as the first event, the side str'lke, receiving knickernicks fr om the Winget Co ., Minneapolis.

Man) ' EtJterlOiuillg Stunts Prcstt&ted

As a fitting clos e to an afternoon of play, came Stu n t Night, which opened with the singing of "Who."

The Grand President then introduced Dean Anna Blitz of the University of Minnesota who was the guest of Convention on the afternoon of Recreation Day and for the Stunt Night program. Although the original plans had been made to have her attend the Settlement School program, she found that her schedule at the summer school would not permit that engagement, so she

saw the Pi Phis at play rather than in their more serious moods.

Dean Blitz is an alumna of the University of Minnesota, a member of Mortar Board, and in addition to serving as Dean of Women at Minnesota has taught at Stillwater and at B 0 i s e, Idaho . She holds an M.A. degree from Columbia University and was chosen dean of women at William Smith College and also at the University of Kansas before accepting her appointment at the University of Minnesota.

In her words of greeting, Dean Blitz ass ured the audience that cool weather was forthcoming. a message which was m 0 5 t enthusiastically received.

Mrs. Walker, the assistant convention guide, absent because of illness, wa s also introduced by Miss Onken to the audience, as was Mrs. Minnie Newby Ricketts, Iowa I, and Minnesota B, a former Grand Vice President, and Guide of the Convention at Chicago in 1893.

The /irst stunt on the program was "A College Kitchen," given by Alpha Province and written by Vermont B. S ociab ility, pep, scholastic attainment, dramatic ability, efficiency, athletic prowess, humor and wit were completely mixed to produce the ideal Pi Phi girl. The entire cast joined in singing "My Pi Phi Girl." Members of the cast were: Gretchen Fischer, Ruth Pearce, Lucy Gooding, Lois Robinson, Doris Whitney, Helen Appleby, Maria Edmonston, Eva Thompson, Dor othy Rogers, and Dorothy Clarke.

Gamma Province presented the "Dixie Wedding," written by Maryland A. It was a typical old southern wedding but in the very unconventional jazz interpretation. The cast included: Virginia Aires. Helen Taylor, Bobby Hines, Polly Hines, Myrtle Franklin, Frances McNulty, Audrey Noonan, Margaret Beazley, Helen Tottle, Jean Mithoefer, Nancy Snyder. One attractive feature was the Virginia reel danced with the step of the Charleston.

The Zeta Province stunt was in the form of a monologue, depicting the story of a girl from her girlhood tomboy days through high school as a cheer leader, wearing her first college outfit, in Red Cross costume, with her first French hat and at last with the arrow hat. The fact was brought out, however, that it is not the hat that makes the Pi Phi but the pin which is good

Becau se of the interest expres se d in her lovely new home , Mrs Faw cett most g ra c io u s ly opened it f or in s pection on Thursday . At odd hour s all through the day Pi Beta Phis wand e red through the spacious rooms, taking advantage of the opportunity to see thi s home which is so uniqu e in its architec ture and so luxurious in its furni shings.

Built o f highly polished, beauti ful logs, erected according to plans worked out by Mr . and Mrs. Fawcett with expert architect s, thi s structure offers a splendid example of a livable and comfortable permanent home built on artistic lines. Its interior, arranged and furni s hed by o ne of the mo st expert inte rior decorators o f the entire country, also contains trophies which have been collected personally by Capt . "Billy" in all parts of the world. Autographed photographs from noted writers and actors also attes ted the world-wide friendship s of the Fawcetts.

To visit such a home anywhere would be a treat, but to find it up in the north woods, made the visit all the more interesting. It is truly a sho w place-and yet has a real home atmosphere.

Reserving only two r ooms for her family, Mrs . Fawcett turned this home over to the fraternity and it was occupied all

Exclamations of delight fiIled the room as each box was opened displaying a bracelet, a pin, a s ilver penci l, or something equaIly interest ing.

It was just like Christmas-gift; everywhere! The members of the Grand Council had just r eceive d beautiful leathrr purses as gifts of the St. Paul-Minneapolis alumnre club, and thty were wearing lovel y dlrsages, sent by Colorado A.

In spite of the comparatively short distance from home of our hostess chapter, the number present was sufficient to win th!! mu ch treasured Attendance Cup, adding honor upon honor to t.l,c Pi Beta Phi chapter and its alumnre at the University of Minnesota. We have said "comparatively short distancc"-yet, w<! must remember that one hundred and fifty miles takes one quite a way from home-and means sacrifice on the part of many, who went t o Breezy Point in order that we might have a mo,t happy and s uccessful gathering.

By popular acclaim the stunt cup donated by Loui se Garner, Nebraska B, to be awarded for the best stunt presented at Convention, went to Delta Province after numero us cottnts.

Then came the 1110 St te nse motnent of the evening- the awarding of the Balfour Cup. For the first time in the hi story of the award, the c u p went the second tim e to the s ame chapter. \Visconsin A, Univers ity of \Vi scol1s in, and was received by Charlotte Wollaeger. The happine ss of Wisconsi n A in retaining the cup . surp.'\ssed even that which it had experienced last year up o n rece lVlng it, because the thought of giving it up had been most keen and the joy of being able to re tain it was unbounded.

The T oasls

According to c li s tom, the Grand Vi ce President presided at the banquet, and had worked out a very lovely toa st scheme, using the Father of Water s as a background.

In her very charming manner, Emilie Margaret vVhite ga,'c the first toast, "The Mother of Fraterni t ie s Meets by th e Father of Waters."

She th en cleverly introduced her speakers who respo nded as follows:

Each speaker contributed her share to the lovely toast scheme and traced the growth of life in Pi Beta Phi from the tiny spring to the great ocean, while the Grand Vice President wove in well chosen and musical word s, the thread of the silver river connecting them.

The inspiration of the toasts filled every hearer and the memory of them lingered long after the singing of the songs and after the last strains of the Loving Cup so ng had died away.

Each Convention banquet see ms to grow in beauty and in impressiveness and thi<; seemed the be ... t one o f a1l.

Minnesota A Ent e rtains

As a climax to the evening, l\finnc so ta A, entertained the Pi Phis at a dance in the Recreation "Hall , with music from one of the finest orchestras in Minneapolis.

Good -bye, Breezy!

Automobiles began to ca rry the delegates back to the railway, s ome going to their homes, some joining the Yellowstone Special, others starting for special vacation resorts. A ll were reluctant to leave as Breezy Point had won a place in their hearts.

CONVENTION

Convention? Yes, it has come and gone. Only day before yesterday we were anticipating it; yesterday we were enjoying it; but what doe s it mean today? True, it repre se nts to us the accomplishment of many things but even these things will soon be of the past. There are things of Convention, however, that will never change-never grow old.

T o those wh o s it in Convent io n hall together; wh o drink fr om the lovi ng cup at the banquet; wh o wo rk and play with more than five hundre d arrows about them-there comes a realization o f Pi Beta Phi which can come in n o other way.

POST- CONVENTION C ONFEREN CE

At Inwood, on Gull Lake

ECA USE of the previous reservation:, of other guests at , Breezy Point Lodge, for the Fourth of July week-end, provisions were made to take carc of the Grand Council and Province Officers at Inwood, on Gull Lake, ab out fifteen or twenty miles from Breezy Point.

Inwood, lying between two Jahe,:, in the sheltering woods of was an ideal place for relaxation after the strenuous days of Convention.

Miss Archer, who owns Inwood, cares for her guests in individual cottages with one centra l dining hall and a recreation hall. This arrangement provides ample opportunity for the indulgence of individua l tastes in the matter of entertainment.

Lovely drives through the woods, splendid golf courses, m")tor boat trips, fishing and other forms of recreation are within ready access of Inwood.

A busy post-convention joint session was held with the Grand ('.Qundl and Province Officers, followed by sessions of the Grand Council at which plans were discussed for the coming two years and the work of Convention was rounded out.

After the bus iness had been concluded, some h u rr ied away to their homes and families, while others remained in the Northern wands for a few days to rest

At seven o'clock the doors to the dining roJm were thrown open to a beautiful sight-the hng tables were spread in the dining and sun-rooms and were gaily decorated with delphinium and roses and wine and silver blue balloons. The favors were brown paper cookies (ado rned with a real raisin, however) which held the picture of the incoming members and a li st of their names. 'rhe cooky-shine carried u s all back to our happy college days and we spen t the even ing renewing old acquaintanceships and singing our songs. The new pledges returned to their chapter house where Mrs. McPherson, Kappa Province President. read them the constitution and many of the alumn., and California Gammas went to the Beverly Hills \Vomen's Club to complete the arrangements for initiation.

Friday wa s a beautiful California day and an ideal one on which to renew our beginnings in Pi Beta Phi. The club was perfect for in stallation, a typical woman's club in a beautiful setting and we had jt to ourselves for the entire day. Miss Onken began initiation at nine, assisted by Gail DeWolf, Grand Secretary, Mrs. McPherson, Kathryn Gude, California A, Hon ora Eaton, California n, Dorothy Kerley, California A, the California Gamnla active chapter and many alumnc:e from Long Beach, Pasadena and Los Ange les. All of the active girls of Califol'llia Delta were initiated before we began luncheon in the patio where the Los Angeles Alumn., Club served a deliciou s and dainty luncheon to 175 Pi Phis. Our colors made the tables very decorative, being carried out in the beauti f ul Rowers and the nut cups tied with wine and blue tulle bows. The initiation of the alumn., began at 2 o'clock and Miss Onken initiated the last girl at 5 :30. The impressive installation ceremony followed immediately and we all felt better for another day steeped in Pi Beta Phi.

The instaliation banquet wa s held at the J o nathan Club that night and was a fitting climax to that day. One hundred seventyfive Pi Beta Phis gathered there and the California Deltas had spared nothing in making it a success. The tables were decorated with silver blue cand les, tied with wine colored bows, set in boquets of delphinium and wine colored roses ant! huge baskets of the same Rowers were on each table. There were three long

She first read many telegrams welcoming California Delta into Pi Beta Phi. She then introduced Mrs. Iowa Il , who played three songs which she had composed and a quintette ,ang them. The "Waltz Song" was dedicated to Cali fornia Delta. The toast program wa s novel in its plan of the speakers repre se nting a Pi Beta Phi Family. Miss De \" olf asked :l1i" Onken t o give the ;;Role of the Family " and s he, who had given so mllch of her se lf all day, responded with an inspiring toa"" that m::u)t' itself felt.

THE UNIVERSITY OF CA LIF ORN I A, AT LOS ANGELES

The Un i ve r s ity of California, at Los Ange les, at present occupies approximately twenty-five acre s in th e heart o f the res idential section of Los Angeles. The present group o f buildings was begun in 1912 as the s ite of the Los Angeles State Normal School, then an old institution. On July 24 , 19 19, the Southern Branch of the University of California was establi shed by the Stat e Legislatur e, and the property of the normal schoo l was tran sferred to the Regent s of the University o f California.

The Southern Branch was at this time qualified to g rant the degree of Bachelor of Education in the Teachers Co ll ege and the Junior Certificate in the College of Letters and Scien ce. In June , 1923, the fir , t group of twenty-eight st udents received their B.E. degrees. This same year the Regents added the Junior course in Letters and Science. On December 13, the R egent s added the fourth year and in June, 1924, the first group wa s graduated with the of Bachelor of Arts. The institution has grown so rapidly that the enrollment o f 1,300 in 19 19 has increased t o 5,914 in six years

On March 21, 1925, the Board of Regents decided to move the University of California at Los Angeles, to a new site and equip it for indefinite expansion. The Regents decided upon a 385 acre tract to the west of Los Angeles. The new campus is on a rolling, hilly territory that shows great possibility for magnificent land scaping. The immediate background is One of m o untai n s, while the foreground is a gentle s lope, leading to Santa Monica and the ocean. On the west i s a sing le, flat meadow which is to be used for athletic fields. On the east side of this fie ld , the main campus building will be fitted into the undulating hills. The hills on the west side are to be sold to fraternities, so that one entire section will be devoted solely to fraternity houses which mu s t harmonize with the university buildings.

Cons truction has already been sta rted and it is expected that the new campus will first be occupied in February, 1928 .

lIISTORY OF ALPHA TAU ZETA

A lpha Tau Zeta, the third oldest sorority on the campus, was organized in December, 19 18, when the University of California at Los Angeles, was tho Los Angeles State Normal School.

Alpha Tau Zeta was organized for the purpose of developing womanly character in its members and creating a spirit of loyalty to the univer sity and fellowship among the students. It had the definite aim of securing a charter from the best national fraternity and because we sincerely believe that Pi Beta Phi best exemplifies these aims, we have had no other goa l than to obtain a charter from Pi Beta Phi.

Alpha Tau Zeta a lw ays stood · for high scho larship, excellence in social welfare work , prominence in campus activities, democracy and a ll uni versity friendliness.

Alpha Tall Zeta was incorporated and for the past four years ha s had a chapter heuse. We have maintained a building fund whi ch we u sed in buying our lot at Westwood, the new site for the univer s ity.

In 1920, we established the Women's Aid Fund-this s um is to be used at the di sc retion of the Dean of women to aid

In 1920, we spo n sor"f a benefit for the St ud ent Loan Fund . In 1921, a benefit wa s given for the \V omen's C lub s Rooms in th e uni vers ity. In 1923 Alpha Tau Zeta led the campu s organi zat ions in obtaining money for the Japan ese Re li ef F u nd. Also, in 1923, a benefit wa s given i or th e Berk e ley Fire Relief and f or the Women's Aid Fund .

N Friday, September 30, 1927, eighteen act;'·e members and twenty alumnre of Zeta Chi Delta, at the University of South Dakota at Vermilion, were ini t ia t ed into Pi B ¥ta Phi and the South Dakota A chap:er of Pi Beta Phi was installed.

Amy E. Onken, Grand President, had charge of the in s tallation assisted hy delegate!) from sc\'cra l chapters and a large repre sen tati o n from Sioux City, Iowa, and from the active and aiumme groups at Lincoln, Nebraska.

Pledging took place Thursday morning and afternoon ,nd in the evening a fter a cooky-shine at th e chapter house. the pledges went to the lovely home of Ex-Go\·"rnor and Mrs. Andrew E. Lee where the Constitution was read and discussed by the Province President, Emma Mae Baldwin.

At tcn o'clock Friday morning th e initiation services began with Miss Onken officiating. from a piano and a muted violin created an effective background. Installation of the group as a chapter to ok place immediately after the initiation service, and wa s followed by a formal installat ion

Myrna Hurlbut, pres ident of the local chapter, presided as toastmistres s, using for her theme the "Voyage" of Zeta Chi ta into the harbor of Pi Beta Phi. Miss Onken spoke on launching the ship: Bernadine Chesley Sawers, W isco nsin A.

the fin II ana lysis, it is the existence of such an educatio nal institution which makes possible the existence of a Pi Phi chapter; (2) one's loyalty to her fraternity, the full meaning of which is self-.,vident to all initiated Pi Phis; (3) one's sc h o lar ship ob li gati oll , Pi fieta Phi does not arbitrarily demand that all its members be " A" st udents, for it is not essentially a Phi Beta Kappa orga" ization, b u t it d oes request that each indi vidu al member do the beS t scho lastic w ork of whi ch she is capab le; (4) o ne's socia l ob li gati ons, for Pi Phis, as chosen women. must be above reproach in conduct; in short, they mu s t be socia l leaders .

Upon conclusion of the toasts, Pi Beta Phi songs were sung as the fina l feature of a ve ry happy evening.

Saturday 's activ iti es opened with chapter meeting at whi c h the officers of the new chapt er were in sta ll ed , and the G rand President gave a short but very in spiring talk. At noon, Mrs. Wilson, Pi Phi patrones s, entertained at a beautifully appointed lun ch eon, for Miss Onken a nd the vis iting delegates.

That afternoon, South Dakota A received at a tea at the house, and the high esteem in which the gro up is held wa s displayed by the attend ance of many uni ve r si ty and town s people. Mi ss Onken and the official delegates received love ly r ose corsages as an expressi on of appreciation fr om the new Pi Phis.

As a grand fi na le to an occas io n of s uc h an Installation Ball was held Saturday evening in the University Arm o ry, whi ch was artistically and fittingly decorated in wine and ' blue, and was a decid ed success from every standpoint.

South Dakota 's first Pi Phi chapter possesses a very attr ac ti ve ho u se which is ideally s itu a t ed on a wooded hill ov erl ooking th e Missouri ri ver . Add to thi s the excellent personnel of the group and the enthusiasm attendant upo n such an occasion as an initiation and in sta llati on by the Grand President of Pi Beta Phi and there remain s no ques ti o n as to the future advance and prosperity of such a chapter.

Not only do the members of this group, youthful in the national organization, but all those as well who were present from other and much older chapters feel new impulses for advance, potentialities for accomplishment as a result of this inspiring expe rience .

THE HISTORY OF ZETA CfH DELTA

Zeta Chi Delta was o r ga ni zed May 25, 1920, by twenty-tw o girls of the University of So uth Dakota, with the intention of petitioning Pi Beta Phi for a c harter .

Never during the seve n years o f it s orga ni zat ion has th e group wavered fro m it s o ri g ina l purpose, eve n though un successful in it s petition presented at the Estes Park Co n ventio n

Pi Beta Phi wa s th e c hapter' s goa l and it made su ch a splendid place o n its camp us; he ld it s id ea ls so hig h a nd wo n so many individual laurel s that it proved it s worthin ess t o possess the charter which it sought.

Since the organ izat ion of Phi Beta KapPl on the Unive rsity of South D akota campus, there has been a member of Zeta Chi Delta on its rolls; last year its pres ident wa s elected Mi ss Dak o ta, which is the high es t ho no r a girl ca n have in the univer s: ty; and the chap ter itse lf last year held a lead ing place in the activities oC the university.

NE decision was made at Breezy Point last J tine at the very beginning of Convention-if llirl11ingham-Southern was granted a charter J was going to be present at the installation_

I am a conservative through and through but did want another chapter granted in the South and that littl e map made an impression on me, as well as the fact that few arrows are seen down here.

But with all my determination at that time and the real desire to go to Birmingham the in,·itation lay on my desk unanswered until about three hours before the train left Knoxyille on Thursd ay, October 6. I :'ad decided I co uld not possibly go and was just about to wire regrets when into the Shop I dashed and asked who would go with me, l eaving Gatlinburg in forty minutes. LaDelle Allen played up at once in the given time we were! off. Vve did stop long enough in Knoxville to get a message through and when we reached Birmingham were met at the train and assured we were not to') late to go up to the chapter rooms to meet the girls and to see Miss Onken.

\Ve did miss the pledging and the COOky-shine given by the llirminghzm Pi Phis. arriving just as the girls were gathering their house guests and thinking about h om es and a little rest.

The chapter rooms are in a house at the edge of the campus, the college giving it for the use of the different women's fraternities , e;}C'h group furni s hing its own rOom s .

The installation was held there Friday morning following the initiation ceremony. After the initiation a buffet lunch was served. In the afternoon the six freshmen were pledged.

The banquet at the Country Club Friday night was most enjoyable. Birmingham being One of the greatest iron and steel centers in the United States, the toast scheme was "The Metallurgy of Pi Beta Phi."

Virginia Miller, president of the chapter, was toastmistress, and cleverly introduced various Pi Phis who responded as follows:

The cover design of the program was made by Tienny Gaudett, a s ilh ouette in wtne and blue s how ing the smoking steel mills.

It was a great disappointment that Alice Ward DeLong, Ohio B, who had presented the petition at Convention and done so much, for the girls, co uld not be at th e entire banquet because her young son suffered a broken arm in the afternoon. She did howeve r, run in for a few minute s after he:: was quiet for the night.

Saturday mo rning was Jll ade very impressive by the chapter meeting at which Mis s Onken spoke to the girls. Miss Onken's love and understanding of college girls never fail to bring a response from the girls and 1 am sure that they Will long remember the splendid talk she gave.

In the afternoon a tea was gi,-en at the Country Club which wa s attended by many from both Howard and BinninghamSouthern Colleges, as well as city friends.

Although there are so few Pi Phi chapters in this sec tion of the South there was quite a delegation at the ins .allation. Practically every girl from the Chat t anooga chapt er was present, Helen Kennedy, Florida B; LaDeile Allen, Arkansas A; Mrs. F . E. Perry, Virginia A; Alice Ward DeLong, Ohi) ll; and Mrs. Nichols, Missouri r

One of the greatest pleasures of the trip was the hospitality we all enjoyed and again we felt what a big part the m o thers and fathers always play in Pi Beta Phi.

It was a great, big inspiration to see a chapter of Pi Beta Phi installed and to witne ss aJFlin the initiation ce remony. 0 nee again in our own hea rts we renewed our pledges to Pi Phi.

HISTORY OF THETA PI

The Theta Pi Fraternity was founded in February, 1925, with the express intention of petitioning Pi Beta Phi, and therefore has endeavored to build the basis s tructure of its organization upon such sound principles and high ideals as to be worthy of later affiliation with the national.

The girls included in the original group were active in Co-Ed Council, Departmental clubs, hon o r fraternities , dramatic clubs, glee club, college weekly and annual staffs.

Although one o f the ne wer gro ups on the Birmingham-Southern campus, Theta Pi has wo n many acad emic and social honors.

HISTORY OF BIRMINGHAM-SOUTHERN COLLEGE

Birmingham-Southern College is located in Birmingham, the largest city in Alabama. Birmingham li es in the north central part of the state, in the su ulhern of the Appalach;an mountain s, in a region ri c h with coal. iron, and many other natural resources. It s population is about 230,000 and the city is in the center of a r egion which numbers approximately a half million within a twenty mile radius .

Birmingham-Southern College is the result of a merger in 1918 of Birmingham College and Southern University.

Southern University was founded in 1859 at Greensboro, A labama, and was for many years one of the famous centers of education in the old South. It maintained a continuous existence with an enviable record in scholarship until the time of the merger, being for many years a college primarily for men. It was, from the beginning, administered under the direction of the Methodist Episcopa l Church South.

In 1898, the Methodist Church establi s hed in the then s mall city of Birmingham, a co-educational in stitution, later known as Birmingham Coll ege. Its career was successfu l as an individual institution until the time of the union in 1918.

The finest of the history and traditions of the two colleges, together with the material assets of both, have combined to make

Wisconsin A, U"iv ersit y v f U/iscolJsiu . Wins CliP Sec und Time

The hon o r and gl ory which a chapter depend, of course, upon the personnel of the gro up . This year's chapter of Wisconsin A feels that tho graduating class of last year (June, 1927), was one of the s trongest classes which we have known, and that it is to that class primarily that we o we the fact that we again received the Balfour Cup .

Our 1927 president, Elizabeth Milne, was able to carryon the traditions in spite of several handicaps , inel uding our ]oss of Mrs. Stites as chaperon, who had been with us for many years and who had helped to bring up the chapter to its present status .

We have discovered that the belt way to keep our scholarship high is for every chapter girl to take scholarship cards to her instructors at mid-semester time. By this method, we are able to keep in touch with each other's grades and perhaps lend helping hand where there is a weakness.

Quiet hours are maintained throughout the greater part of the day and these rules a r e enforced by monitors appointed on each floor. If for any reason, a girl cannot st udy in her own room, she may attend the studv hall which is kept for the pledges every evening.

We also, have concluded that it is a good plan to give the younger girls in the chapter a certain amount of r&sponsibility so that when they become upper classmen they are able to assume their share without too much unfamiliarity with it. T his method is very effective in preparing girls for office and in turn helps us always to keep a strong executive body.

We are very fortunate in having an alumnre association wh ·....takes an acth-e part in all of our endeavors, and the cooperation between the alumn", and actives has resulted in a chapter in which exists unity and coherene-

BOOK NOTES

"Sai .. / i" [vary," by Lorine Pruett (Mrs. Douglas Fryer Pruette, Tennessee A), D. Appleton & Co., $2.50. 1927. This first novel of Lorine Pruette's takes one back to Pari ... and its environs in the time of Genevieve. Cenc"ie,oe of Paris and Nanterre is revealed in this novel as a woman of human interests and desires who is transformed by circumstances into a legendary young girl converted into a sa int. Like Helen of Troy and Saint Joan she is a glamorous and appealing figure. And like Joan of Arc, Genevieve saved her people from the enemy.

'rhe time of Genevieve was the tinie of Attila and Clovis, when the Roman Empire had almoc;t colJapsed find different tribe" were struggling for the territory that is now Fran ce. Altho,ugh the period is rem ote, it lives for the reader with a vitality which few modern background s pos sess. :Miss Pruette has written the story of Genevieve in a literary sty le as s impl e as the goodnes s of the woman written about, and as pictorially heautiful In coloring as an old illuminated manuscript.

1\li .. Pruette gathered much of her material for this nO\'el from first hand sources in France and all the ContinentI and has displayed a finished workmanship in this book similar to that in her biography of "G. Stanley Hall."

Her ability to turn historical facts and long forgotten phrases into interesting, modern reading is And her accuracy in de picting scenes of hundred s of YC<1.rs ago IS mOSt ex ceptional."

A MOUNTAIN WOMAN

11GH up on the sid e of a "h oller" in the Smoky Mountain region o f e as tern Tennes see lives "Aunt" Lydia Whaley, who, des pite her eighty-four years, tills her own soil, rai !)cs her own f ood, make s remarkable baskets, is a skilled worker at the loom and spinning wheel and cheers many a weary heart with her unique philosophy.

Aunt Lydia is a devout student of the Bible and can q uote Scripture by the hour. All alone, a quarter of a mi le from her nearest neighbor, this mountain woman lives from day to day with the same independent spirit which she has shown during a ll the years since her hu sband was killed in the Civil War, leaving her a widow with a small family to care for.

After her husband's death, life in the little log cabin h ome was a ha r d struggle. From early dawn until dark Lydia' W h a ley tended he r crop, gathered wild fruits and berries to preserve, too k he r own com to mill, made new shoes for her children o u t of old ones which she ripped up, and often for the sum of $ 1 each m ade coats by hand in order to pay the taxes on her land.

This solemn faced wOlnan with a twinkle in her eyes is not afraid to live alone up on the mountain s ide. "I never seed but one 'fraid in my Ii fe," she said, Hand that wa s one night when I seed something black Ollt in the yard. I went out to it and give it a hard kick and it was my' little black kittle."

In that land of mountain laurel , dogwood, magnolia and tulip trees s hut away from the rest of the wo rld by creeks and mountain ridges there is much time for contemplation and the reading of Scripture There , in the peace and quiet of the valley, Aunt Lydia 'Vhaley ha s thought out a philosophy of her own as one may judge irOITI th ese w orel s of hers : "I've seed a heap of ups and down s and had a world of trouble the whole world through, and I hope I get to a better sbme day. But the trial s of this w 0 rid mu st be borne with patience. This world is only a s topping place."

REPORT OF RUBY C. RnlAN FOR JANU.,\RY, 1927

\Ve ha ve been busy with toxin-antitoxin clinics thi s month. The teachers have cooperated sp lend idly with us. Several 0 f them coming to see us, and requesting the treatment while ot h ers ha\'c written asking when we can come in order that they may w ork up the clinic so as to include the pre-school children. Dr. Kinzer and I sent the teachers material exp lainin g the treatment to be distributed. They write the parents and get their permission to treat the children, and ask thenl to bring the yo unger ones. So far we have had on ly one objection from any parent. The mother wrote the teacher, No. she didn't want her "child nated." This boy needs a tonsillectomy badly. I asked Dr. Kinzer to see him. IIe did, and sa id he would see his father at his first opportunity.

As I ride up the st ream s where we cannot go in a car, th e mothers stop me all along the way, and ask me, "If I would mind to stop and vaccinate Johnny." They have mump s up at the school, and she doesn't want hilTI to get the mumps. \"1 e ha ve had several cases of mumps, but h ope to a\'oid an epidemic.

I organized a class in hom e hygiene and care of the sick on January 3. I taught four days a week for the first two weeks , now I am teaching two days a week. IVly class cons is ts of twelve girls from the Gatlinburg High School. We are expecting Miss Ely to visit us in the near future.

Mrs. Berrill Ogle continues to improve. She is now able to be up and about the house helping to care for her s ix lovely' little chi ldr en.

I took Kate Huskey into Knoxville to Dr. Patterson on January 24. He was very much pleased with the impro\'ement she ha s made wearing a brace for two 1110nths.

On New Year's night abo ut twelve o'clock, 1 answered a call for the nurse. It proved to be a gentleman frolll the Greenbrier. He had been riding since early evening ( the roads were

SO bad). He brought a note from Dr. Hoffman asking me to call Dr. Lynn immediat e ly , and ask him to start as early as possible in the morning for Gatlinburg. He arrived at seve n A. M . We ate breakfa st and started in a F o rd , arriving at the patient's h ome at noon. Dr. Lynn did an appendectomy. The appendix was just about to rupture . The patient was a young man in the navy wb o was spending the holidays at home . He made a r ap id reco\'ery. It is impossible to bring a patient out at this sea so n over the road s. 'We didn't ride a\l the way by any means, did conside rable walk ing as well as pushing.

On Januar y 14, about 3 P M., 1 had a letter from Dr. Thomas at Pitman Center, a s king me to call a Knoxville s urge o n to start immediately for Gatlinburg to go t o Pitman Health Center and operate. He asked me to come if I cou ld . Dr. Lynn arrived at 7 o'clock, and we started in a Ford for Pitman. It w as raining, and had been raining for seve ral days. Had sca rcely started when the Ford stopped-we decided we cou ldn't go hor seback and cany our supplies in the rain, so Mr. Huff sa id Jim could take us in his Chevrolet as far as the river, about a mile from Pitman; we reached the river about 11 o'clock after much difficulty. "Ve decided to try to cross, but the c ar s topped in the middle of the river, and the rain was pouring. Jim waded out and tried to get a mule team to pu ll us out. He walked abo ut a mile to a house but co uld not get any response, as they were all so sound asleep. Jim came back, waded the ri\'er again, and tried some folks on the other side about a mile down the river. Thi s time he succeeded in getting a good team whi c h was accustomed to pulling ca r s out. The man said he would wait for us if w e would hurry back. "Ve proceeded to Pitman. The patient had decided to wait another day for his operation. His h ome was five miles up the hollow fr om Pitman. He told the doctor he would be carried down on the stretche r to Pitman, and have the operation there, but decided after Dr. Thomas left him to wait another day. Imagine how we felt.

We started home, and this time both t eam and car s tuck in the middle of the river. Again Jim had to get out and put the mules to the back of the car, pull u s back and statt again. This time, safely across, the car wouldn't run; something happened to

the o il whil e we were in th e water so long . No oil any wh e re; finally a man sa id he had some that had been used. W e tried it , all went well until we reached Hickam hill-s tu ck again. Jim ass isted Dr. Lynn up. I managed to get u p ( heing more accustomed to mud, and ca rri ed the fl ashligh t and lighted the wa y fOJ them \ Ve ,,:aited in the ra in while Jim labo r ed, tr yi ng to get the car up. He got it up after a while, a nd we reach ed Gatlinburg at 6 A. M. , stopping severa l times to put on c hains- havi ng los t one, and the other kept coming ofT . . \unt Lizzie h ad a good breakfast prepared . We did it justi ce .

THE ARRO\yCRAFT SHOP

I]T the close of the eight months terlll of school last spring the Arrowcraft Shop was opened in the dining room of the Teachers Cottage where the kindergarten classes had been . The next Inonth we moved it into the Stuart Cottage wher( it stayed until schoo l opened again the middle of August. Then back it came to the Teachers Cottage , baskets, tools, chairs and everything stored wherever there was even a little space.

\Ve have planned that as soon as the new building cou ld be finished and the agriculture and c.:h np work moved into it that we would take the little old schoolhouse near the road for the .\rrowcraft .

Day a fter day we grew more crowded until finally it was apparent that a storage room be built and built at once. As it should be where the Shop was to be permanently we decided to move the o ld schoo lho u se a hundred feet back, bui ld an addition and fix the attics of both the old and new parts for storage. That has been done and we are moving not only the s urplu s stock but the regular s h op there.

Again this year the tourists have come in in sufficient numbers to make a Gift Shop necessary and we sha ll continue it through the enti re year. Miss LaDeile A ll en will ha,·e en tir e charge of the Arrowcraft and with her keen interest and her year of experience here we arc SlIre it will be handled most efficiently. \Vhen you think that between Sept. I, 1926, and Sept. I, 1927, about $21,000 worth of products went out from here you will not wonder that it has been necessary to have a place, a person (or persons) and much time for it all.

The things are lovely thi s year and from all exhibits sent out during the past few months only the highest praise has come.

NEW ROADS NEAR GATLINBURG

FROM LITTLE PIGEOl<

NE\\' MAIN ROADS

(Although th e trails and by-ws"ya are ellll muddy and Impassable parl or )'e8r, good road. are being constructed In Eastern Tennessee and tourllt travel III being a •• ured. -The Editor).

IfiiIaT so very long ago there was a corner of Eastern Tennessee, bounded by creeks and "ho ll e rs" and m a untain ridge s, almos t entirely shut away fr om the rest of the world by muddy, impassable roads.

Those hills covered with mountaiu laur e l, holly and hundreds of luxuriant plants and trees sheltered the picturesque cabins of mountaineers, many of whom had ne,"er been down in the broad vallcy seven miles away.

Gatlinburg, the center of civilization in that part of Tennessee, with its six hOll ses, a "well -ventilated" church, an open air blacksmith sh op, a tumbled down schoo l house and two general stores, lay in one of the most beautiful valleys in the entire United States.

Families living up and down the creeks that drained into the Little Pigeon River came to Gat linburg to do their trading but did not go beyond.

Five years ago when the Grand Council made the trip from Knoxville to Gatlinburg (a distance of forty-eight miles as the cro w flies ). we rode all morning on the ca l)OO!)c of a lum ber train which wound it s way thro ugh fertile valleys. then up a canon along a rushing mountain s tream bo rdered by wooded mountainsides on which now and then glistened the waters of a mi s ty waterfall. or fr o m which ferns and mountain foliage formed arches over the train as we c reaked around the curves .

About noon we arrived at Elkmont, a lum ber camp, where we had dinner and then climbed aboard an automobile. A fter a mile, however. over mo s t exasperating roads the car "gave up the ghost." We walked, waded streams, and finally finished the last two miles of the journey in a Ford which brought us to our destination at about four o'clock in the afternoon.

The return trip to Knoxville that same w eek was made over a different route with a one-horse buggy to Pigeon Forge, seve n miles, over the road from Gatlinburg that was then being r e built ;

TH£ ARROW OF PI B£TA PHI

NEWS FROM LITTLE PIGEON

then to Sevierville by automob ile; and fr om there to Knoxville by a small train .

On the way down from Gatlinb u rg we passed lumber wagons loaded with tan bark mired dOlVn in Illud hub deep. A r a un d one c ur ve we met two t eams at a yery narrow place. It w as necessary for us to unhi tch our con\'eyance, lead o ur horse back to a wider place in the road, hold our one-horse buggy up on th e s ide of the mountain while t he teams and loaded wagons passed us.

The journey down th e Litt le Pigeon River in the one-horse buggy furnished thri ll s a-plenty and wound up by fording the river where the water ran through the bottom of the buggy, b ut we pe r ched o ur feet on the dashboard and made the crossing safe ly.

Plenty of tim e did w e hav e in j oggin g along that first seve n miles to enjoy t he cab in s t ucked away on the hill s ides; t o view the rail f ences covered with fr agra nt honeysuckle v ines; and to gaze at the many new and interesting things.

A t that time work had just bee n begun o n the Gatlinburg to Pigeon Forge road and a steamshove l was g rinding its way into the mountainsides.

Imagine our surpri se a year ago to ge t int o a large automobile in Knoxville and to glide over roads as smoot h as anyone could desire ana to arrive at Gatlinburg in less than two hours!

Exce ll ent r oads, co n c r ete br idges o f the lates t design , widened roads-now greet th e traveler o n hi s way into the very heart of the Great Smoky region. The excellent main road which run s right by the ga te o f our Settlement School, is pushing on, too , t o wards Asheville, North Carolina, and by th e time the Great Smoky Na ti o nal Park is opened to the public this road will be completed throu g h one o f th e mos t verdant and picturesque parts of the United States .

N o longer is that part of Eastern T enn essee s hut away from the rest of the world . That land of fl o wering laurel and dogwood, of rushing waterfalls, of exqui site foliage and mass ive mountains, of sturdy pioneers is no w within easy access.

Gatlinburg now boasts our splendid Settlement School, a fine new church , two exc ellent s ummer hotel s; new three

general stores, a barber shop, two gi f t shops, two Antique shops and a number of other bui ldings. The y.W .C.A. has bought land there for a summer caml> and summe r home s are appearing among the trees on the hillsides.

Land which was worthless or practica lly so, ten years agu. is being put in to orchards, cultivated into corn fields, or is becoming the background of i deal summer cottages. Rea l estate men have opt ions up and down a ll of the important "hollers " near Little Pigeon River. Land is exchanging hands at a lm ost unbelievable figures.

Mountaineers who a few years s in ce w e re toting their COftl to 111ill on horseback and who bartered for a lm ost everything they had, now do their marketing in an aut o mobi le and jingle co in s in their pockets. They have improved their homes, bought thorou : hbred stock, arc sending their children to schoo l and arc learning scient ifi c farming.

Bowen (He len Cornwell, Montana A ), s ecretary- tr eas ur er; and Dana S. F rame ( H e len MacDonald, O r egon B ), vice president.

NEW JERSEY ALUMNJE CLUB

On Monday, May 9, a group of twenty - nine ew Jersey Pi Phis met at the home of Mrs. \Villiam Elder (Marguerite Harwood, Vermont A), in Montclair and accomplished the organization of the New Jersey Alumn", club. This meeting had been preceded in March by a benefit card party g i" en by the Morrist o wn, Maplewood, Madison and Orange groups at the home of Mrs. C. M. Conkle (Laura Allen, Pennsylvania B ). The next week another benefit was given at the home of Mrs. Geo rge Slifer (Eve lyn Miller, Pennsylvania A). Each of these realized $100 for the Settlement School. With such fine things being done in a scattered way it was felt that much more could be done through cooperation and that many Pi Phis could be drawn together who h ad been unabl e to go into New York to meetings. Consequently at a luncheon meeting at Mrs. J. A. \Vade's home in Maplewood on AprilS, it was voted unanimously to form a club and at Mrs. Elder's home, formal application was made for a charter. The following officers were elected: B).

President, Mrs. R. D. Duncan, Jr. (Vibert Potts. Missouri

Secretary, Mrs. N. E. Loomis (Lu cile Didlake, Indiana r) Treasurer, Mrs. S. F. Hallser (Jessie Crane, New York A).

The regular time of meeting will be the third Monday of each month, some being luncheons and some s upper meetings. It is hoped that any Pi Phis living in New Jersey and reading this notice will take it as a call to membership and send in their names to the secretary, so that notices of the meetings may be sent them.

She was a member of the first Board of the Michigan Beta Alumn", Associat ion, was one of the signers of the Articles of Incorporation and through her interest, enthusiasm, generosity and wise counse l, was in a g rea t measure responsible for the present lovely chapter house.

Her brave courage, indomitable will, cheerfulness through suffering, and her determination not to be treated as, o r considered an invalid, gave hope that she would be with MS for at least a few more years In her pas sing Kansas A has lost one of its most Joya l and most dearly beloved members.

"Mame" Tisdale was born in Lawrence, Kansas, . July 13, 1870, and lived here all of her life, with the exception of four years spent in Cuba, immediately after her marriage August 27, . 1902 , to Charles Elwell.

She was always a leader in school, church and sooia l affairs and was beloved everywhere she went for her personal

charm, cheerf uln ess, loyalty, genuineness and interest and enthusiasm in eve r y project with which s he was persona ll y connected. A lways a most gracious hostess, she seemed happiest wh en sh owing that charming hospitality for which she wa, noted, and many were the good times th e Pi Phis enjoyed in the beauti ful Tisdale home, before the days of so r ority houses. In the same manner the alumnre were always g rac ious ly made w elco me in the Elwell home. She was scarce ly ever seen wi tho ut her Pi Phi pin anet wa s vitally and helpfully intere;ted in eve rything pertaining to her so r o rit y. The quantities of bea uti fu l flowers and literally hundreds of letters, ca rd s and telegrams r ece iv ed at the time of her d ea th s ho wed how uni ve r sa lly s he wa s beloved.

Our deep sy mpat hy goes o ut to her bereaved husband in his grea t loss.

HOWARD, MRS. Ft NDLEY D . (Ed na Healey), Minnesota A, died July 19 , 192 7 at R oc hes t e r, Minn., following an operation for goite r. Mrs H oward had li ved for a number o f years i n Guatemala, Central America, where her hu sband is United States Cu stoms Collector.

Her hu sban d, small son, eight m ont h s o ld d a ug hter , h er parents and her sister survive her.

Edna' s beauty and courage will long be an i nspirat ion to tho se who knew her. Her death came as an overwhelm in g sho ok. To her grief stricken family, Minnes o ta Pi Phis extend the i r deepes t sympathy.

McCoy, MRS. ALEXANDER W. ( Helen Aylesbury), Missouri A, died of pneumonia at her hom e, 182 5 York St., Denver, Colo., in October. She had bee n in poor hea lth for six months.

Helen Aylesb ury was born in St. J ose ph, M o., and wa s educate d at the University o f Mi ssouri where she became a membe r of Pi Beta Phi. Later she jo ined the Daughter s of the American Revolution.

Beside s her husband, Alexander W. McCoy , , ' Ice president of the Marland Oil Company, she is survived by three children , Alexander ,.y., Jr., Phyllis and Th o mas A. McCoy . With her lovely personality, Mrs. McCoy made friends everywhere and although she had resided in Denver only three years she had made a prominent position for her self and her family in society there Pi Reta Phi has lost a s plendid member in her passing.

MILLER, MRS. J. (Caroline E. ''''alton), died recently at her home at Frankfort, Ind . Death wa s due to heart trouble. She had just recently moved to Frankfort from Fort Wayne, where she was a resident for many years. 'Mrs . Miller was a charter member of Iowa Theta chapter, Ottumwa , Iowa, which was chartered in August, 1884. Caroline E. Walton Miller was a very sincere and loyal wearer of the arrow and her death caused deep grief among her friends.

SMITH , MAUDE CATHERINE, New York B, 1909, died on August 23, at he r home, 208 Ashland Ave., Bloomfield, N. J. Two years ago she suffered a very serious breakdown which was followed by a major operation. From the effects of the operation she never recovered.

Maude trans/erred to Barnard from St. Lawrence University, where she had been a member of the local which had been Kappa, and soon entered Pi Beta Phi. Her sweet disposition made many friends for her at Barnard. For the last fourteen years she was secretary to the superintendent of the Glen Ridge schools. New York B expresses appreciation for Maude' s friend ship and offers deepest sympathy to her mother and brother.

IN MEMORIAM

KATHRYN PAULA WINGO, Missouri r, was born August 14, 1905 and died June 17, 1927. She was initiated into Missouri r of Pi Beta Phi at Drury College in February, 1921.

The death 0 f Paula was a shock to all of us and we shall never unders tand why it had to be. Perhaps we s hall never be entirely reconciled to it and yet there is such a thing as being glad in 0 u r grief. When we think of her as we knew her, we recall h er as gloriously, radiantly beautiful-in body, mind and spirit. In fraternity and college relationships she was to many of u s a veritable sunbeam and the embodiment of the spirit 0 f youth. She was incapable of anything unworthy; her sp irit was always pure and unspoiled, and through 0 u r faith we know that her beauty and goodness are eternal.

The dear memory of her is an everlasting possession. A thought of her will brighten many a dark day in the years to come, and the memory of the sound of her voice will come as a song in the night.

"Sunset and evening star and one clear call for me, And may there be no moaning at the bar When I put out to sea."

The month or September. 1927, Is one long to be rem embe red by the California d. of n B.., at the of California at Los Angeles, for It marked the advance from the local Alpha Tau Zt>ta to Its illace as a chapter of n B..

The chapter was tortunate In having Amy B. Onkf'!n, Grand President, to tnstA.1l It; and In al80 having Gall DeWolte, Grand Secretary; and Grace McPherson. Province President, present. This served to make the week ot Installation even mere memorable than It would have been otherwise. Other pleasing things which Increased the happiness ot California d. were the flowers, telegrams. and letters of congratulation received trom other chapters throughout the country.

The tlrst activity at Califcrnla d. consisted at rushing In which the chapter was very sUl·ces&ru1.

TIMELY SUGGESTIONS

Some things every chapter should h8,-e. accorcling to Bruce McInt08h, A X A. are incorporated in the tollowing eleven items:

1. An automatic suspension clause rigldlv colore-ed.

2. A thoroughly planned system of pledge training.

3. A thorough bookkeeping system.

4. A definite scholarship policy. (There should be n reasonable echolostlc requirem e nt tor initiation. There should be a righl study hour rule tbls sliould be all30lutc<ill enforced. Emphasis should be plu :ed on freshman I,.,rui<ianCE'.)

5. A d e finite policy (adopte d enrly tn the year before the sophomores become too blood thirsty) gO\'erning frMOhmRn cllscltliine. (Plan sow('thing. anything, which will do away with urutality and l"1l1;.mrity In rou:,:h In Itln tlOH , so called. The pledge court Id f'a and the assign. ment ot USl*'ful tn!:lks nbout the house are helpful in wtUng nwny from crude prncti<:es. Don't confuse chalJter entertulnment. freshman dis· cipllnt!. ami Initiation. The three things are separute and distinct.)

6. A well organized set of files. (The central office supplies a set ot file labels 't\' blch w111 old you in organizing y our own system.)

7. A chapter lllJrary. (There shonld be a chapter Ubrarinn. and he 8h8uld be chargpu with taking care ot nil chapter books.)

8. A good set of rituallstic eQuipment. (Buy at least n few pieces each year. Don't continut! using n mnkeshlft set.)

9 Greater ritualistic emphasis, (A special degree team Is a great help for merubens retulnlng the same parts tor se\'ernl yenrs caD be ext1ected to them. See that the trav e ling secretary rel"iews the Greek phrases when he calls. Make the ritual a solemn. serious, and dramatic performance wllich wili have a lasting etJ'ect).

10. Greater Alumni contact. (Send the alumni newsy reports frequently. Elaborate printed perlodicnls are unneces:sary. lnexpensll"e m.1Jneo:raphed shet!tH issued m ont hly are far better than costly printed booklets wued quarterly or annually.)

THAT AWFUL ENGLISH LANGUAGE I

The University of California bas a course known as "dumbbell English."

Every entering student has to take an examination to see whether he can write 500 words of simple English clearly and correctly. Those who fail-which is most ot them-must take a special course in elementary composition, for which they pay a fee, and for which they receive no university credit. The purpose Is to gUflrantee that no one goes on to high f' r university work who has not acquired at least a minimum capacity to write ordinary straight-ahead English.

The puzzle is to know why an actual majority of ostensibly educated young people, who have satisfied the other requirements for university entrance, cannot write educated English. Poor teaching in the preparatory schools is not explanation enough. These schools do furnish satisfactory training in other things, and their English teaching is certainly not uniformly worse than their other "teaching.

A better explanation may be the slovenly English that has 'become almost fashionable; and the demoralization of education, which bring'S to the 1nsUtution ot higher learning whole regiments of students (rom homel with no tradition of books, may be another.

At leaat, the experienee of this unl ve ralty--and it i. by no means exceptional-indicates that we are raising up the best edu. cated generation, statistically, in the history of the world and that, somehow, it is a generation that cannot write its own language. -Tridnl of Delta Delta Delta.

BEAUTY IN FRATERNITY RITUAL

"America's oldest tradition is her youth," remarked a shrewd but frivolous critic, and suggested no remedy. Perhaps it is 80. but instead of denying it, we s hould add, a s a balance to th is youth that mounts in our veins, an imaginative appreciation and 8 partici. pation in the more gracious customs and ideals of the c1ass:c wOTld. The beauty of Greek ideals lends an emotional enrichment to the ordlnnry Jiff ttt todDY; Bnd If n frntt>rnity Is, in Bome Instance&, a luxury of schoo) life, ceremony of any kind i. the poetry of Iif The ritual and ordered grace of Fraternity become a symbol of what is lasting and lovely in one of the most beautiful relationships possible-that of a loved and chosen sister.

THE ARROW OF PI BETA PHI

It is not only that ceremony has an esthetic and impressive value quite immediate, but that remembered ceremony is a cup which holus only the most significant. All that Is casual, all that Is irrelevant, all that is extraneous for a brief wh :le is shorn from life, and the fulIi11ment of Fraternity is cameo-clear, not only at this moment, but for a span of memory. The Greeks had colorful flowers, slo w-rising and ceremonial lights to figure as remembered beauty. but Alpha Chis have the dark, cool carnations, their faint, diffused fragrance, and slim white tapers flower ing into fire.

All this seems richly si g nificant i even in ancient Greece, those who were initiated into dh"lne secrets were c ln<l in fnlr lin e n trnced with gold-but to us the ir ordinary practices shOU'd be more im· pressh'e sU11. hI" cdntrnst with our dln' TSf' anfl cnlculnted ci'f"ilh:ntlon, and should hold a certain exquisite order and s implic it y, which is, in itself, the cup or FraternIty beauty.-The L1Jre ot Alpha Chi Omega

The co\"er design, It any, Is u s ually unpret e nti ous; many of co"erg nre in neutral shades: sometimes the fraternity colors are u Sed. Sevpral employ the coat of nrms. or the r e production of the badge on the CO \'t r .

Most of the magazines rencet something of that pnrtkular fraternity. wbile n few , os the QuarterlJl of Alpha Gamma Delta, U!ic the more COD\'entlonnl title.

It Is a univ{'rsal custom to publish, e hher at th e or at the ('lose of the magazine, n directory of chnptl'rs nnd officers. About half the fraternities use the word "pro"lnce" for the dld slon or chaptet's into geographical groups, ond the others employ the term "dlstrlct," All gh'e rrcognltIon to alumnrc associations. and the maJo· rlty Includ e news letters trom th ose who ore no longer In college. A reodlng of many chapter lette rs shows that It Is almost Imposslhle to a ,"old the stereotyped torm 1n this r es rJ :?ct; each chapter reports Its dolngs . tridal or important. bonor s w o n by memhers, and slmllor e,'ents, All editors hne tr o uble with dellnqu pn t chapter editors. Xo effort is made to excuse such offIc ers ; In more than one mngnztne th ey are held up to public reprlnland. On Be"eral occasions the dis, cusslon has arisen concerning the ad visabilIty of continuing the use of chapter letters; but In spite of th (' ir unclenlably trouhlesome ond oft(>n unsatisfactory f eatures, the members of the National · Panhellenic congress evidently consider them worth continuing,

The attltude towards cOllf'ge and fraternity problems demon st rates n broad , mlnded way ot thinking. Certainly each magazine makes as its principal motive the spreadIn; or information about its par· ticulor fraternity. giving recognition t o Its members who dpscrve It, nnd calItng for the co-operntton ond loyalty of Its memllt'rs hip. But eve-rywhere one tinds empbnsl7.ed loyalty to col1ege. the importance of college activiti es , the en co uragem ent of scholarship. the need of cooperation between Greek letter groups on th e snme campus, and many other e,'ldences of int£'rfrnternity spirit. The tone of the magazine Is inspirational; one does not nl..>ed to l.."1l0W the ritnal ot more tban one fraternity to real17.e th(:: common pledge and Ideals which various fraterniti es are almost sure to have .

The Interest in scholarship is Ii common concern of all.

THE TEACHINGS OF A FRATERNITY

The FratE'rr.ity's primary duty is the s u p port of the university in ih effort t o give the members the education and training they oesire if,r the work which they hav e chosen as theirs. Mem b er s hip in Acacia must n ot impose any demands o r re s trictions that will in any wise r e tard o r prevent the full achievement of th is goal. A chapter of A cacia mu s t be a positive, active support to the univer. sity.

The fraternity's seco ndary duti es are manifold:

To inculcate l ove of country and our country's flagj reverence for the Deity and religi o n j regard for the Truthj and re spect for WOlllUUUO UU. cbildbou{) unu old uge;

To train the memb e rs in the social f o rms, ways and u sages that make their relatio nships with their a ssociates eas:er and pleas· anter;

To train them in the organization of groups of men, and the tactful and effective admini stration of group affairs;

To develop their sense of financial re s pon s ibility, honor, and honesty;

To insi st upon the care of their health and their person j

To encourage their intere s t and participation in athl e tic, mili· tary, foren s ic, music, or other extra·curr:cular activities that will broaden their vision and strengthen their power for good;

In summary. to be a direct, positive force in developing well· rounded, serviceable members of society.

Both directly and indirectly, the Fraternity shou'd teach its members tolerance of the ir fellows' personalities and opinionsj Eyrnpathy for their difficulties and discouragements; consid erat ion for their convenience and comfort. It should teach them modesty and moderation. It should inculcate courtesy-kindliness and inspiration to children, chivalry and respect. to women, charity and gentleness to olu us-c .-O hapt er Alanual of Acacia anc.l The Palm of Alpha Tau Omega
